While still in the NFL, Fletcher Cox was one of the most feared defensive linemen teams had to gameplan for.
His consistency over his more than decade-long career made him so amazing and hard to play against.
However, everyone is talking about an old video of Cox before the Philadelphia Eagles took on the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 57.
He was seen beside former NFL player and now FOX analyst Michael Strahan while asked how much another ring would mean to him.
Cox’s answer was pretty straightforward. Considering he is one of the best players on that defense, it made total sense for him to get some extra screen time.
Most fans, though, could only focus on what he was wearing. His outfit consisted of a purple suit jacket and what looked like a silk blouse underneath.

Many social media users have commented on it and even developed serious conspiracy theories about Cox’s outfit.
Of course, NFL players have become increasingly creative with their pre-game outfits in recent years. If you compare this to what some NBA players wear walking through the tunnels, you might not even give Cox a second look.

It may sound absurd, but Cox has a real shot at the NFL Hall of Fame, though it likely won’t be for a while.
